i opened up that hearing by asking gregory hicks, a 22-year veteran and the man who took the last phone call from the ambassador in which ambassador stephens said, greg, we're under attack. he relaid that and his impression that it was a premeditated aattack to the operations center at the state department within minutes. those kinds of statements aren't political. these people that were in front of our committee are not political. at some point, claiming politics is simply the wrong approach. there were three problems in benghazi. they asked for more security. they got less. they asked for relief for seven hours and there was not an effective relief plan from outside of tripoli or outside libya. and afterwards the american people got false statements before they got the truth. you can't rewrite any of that. what you can do is say, let's fix it so it never happens again. >> do you know why the ambassador, chris stephens, was even in benghazi on the anniversary of 9/11, knowing security there was limited, knowing the british had pulled out, the red cross had pulled out? what was he doing
